I was thinking this was the stupidest thing to happen in the NFL this year.

From an aesthetic standpoint I don’t care too much about bat flips, but I will naturally support anything that sets any sport’s “unwritten rules” on fire, so in that sense I am pro-flip.

Does the pitcher wait until he gets to the dugout before screaming? Does the pitcher wait until the end of the inning to celebrate? Celebrating AFTER the moment sounds like a bigger dick move than celebrating in the moment.

“We will get you out 75% of the time if you’re GOOD. We will jump and scream on the mound and stomp back to the dugout if we ring you up in a key situation, or whenever we want, really. But, if you are happy about one of the best moments of your life, we will throw a ball at potentially fatal speeds at your head,…

I will always champion those who break the unwritten rules of baseball, because the unwritten rules of baseball are all, 100%, yes even your favorite one, fucking stupid.

Horseshit! The offense shouldn’t get rewarded for fumbling. The endzone is different than the sidelines. I’d even argue that it’s more incongruent that the defense doesn’t get the ball EVERY time the offense fumbles it out of bounds. This stupid logic goes both ways.

And that there’s more than one way to cook eggs. RECOMMENCE THE EGG WARS, BRING IT, MOTHERFUCKERS.

I’m waiting for Mike Huckabee to chime in about how SEE THERE’S A WAR ON CHRISTIANITY. Additionally, I know I’m a terrible person for thinking this, but at least this time, I don’t have to hear about how Islam is ruining the world.

This guy is like a dream board of traits that every person can blame for being particularly violent.

The Leagues (MLB & NHL) and even some teams themselves like MSG (Knicks and Rangers) and the Kraft Group (Patriots) all have direct ownership interest in Draft Kings. The NBA and NBC sports have big stakes in Fan Duel. Everyone from very side of sports is in bed with this stuff in some way or another whether it be…

Whew. I have no doubt this will stop the NFL from draping itself in the flag.

More pitchers need to take it in the earhole. Maybe then they’ll stop being such fragile grit creatures.

The ONLY person who has a right to stand and admire his blasts is Peter North

I know this is two different sports but when james harden murdered ricky rubio’s ankle last year with a nasty crossover and then hit the three on him Rubio didn’t get but hurt about it. And Harden did his signature three point sign clearly showing him up but no one said “ hey James Harden you deserve a clothesline…

Did the rules of baseball change?
I thought hitting a home run was the opposite of being shitty at your job.
I thought losing by 9 runs means you’re being shitty at your job.
Maybe you’re defending people who are shitty at their jobs, because you’re one. Solidarity and all that.
Am I applying your “logic” correctly?

When you intentionally walk a batter and the next batter hits a homerun, yeah that guy is going flip the fucking bat and enjoy it, because by not pitching to the hitter ahead of him, you are declaring him to be a shitty hitter. And a hitter will almost always take offense to that.

1. It *is* boring and tedious, especially the first 24 months or so. It gets better.
2. You should consult a medical professional about treatment for post-partum depression. What you are feeling is real, but it’s possible there are chemical things going on in your body and mind that make it seem worse than it is.

My best friend in the whole world is a woman who’s mother committed suicide 20 years ago. There is not a single day that goes by that my friend doesn’t think about her mom. Holidays are especially hard for her. And it;s been two decades.

I think you may be putting me on the wrong side of the coin here, the contracts in the NFL are difficult, but they are what they are and it’s what both sides negotiated for. This is the game they all agreed to play.

Then he should have signed a shorter fucking contract, or held out when his contract was up to get one that he thought was more appropriate.
